AEC Regent Double Decker – Watsons Bay

These were the most popular basis for double deck bus building in NSW with 359 chassis imported. These chassis carried similar bodywork to the Leylands but looked more distinguished due to their distinctive divided radiator and plated surround. With views straight up the harbour to the Opera House and the city, Watsons Bay has always been a popular destination for tourists coming to Sydney.

The AEC Regent was a bit of a handful along the busy New South Head Rd but unlike the runners in the annual City to Surf, Heartbreak Hill was no problem for the old girl who took the climb in her stride.
